    That must have annoyed the heck out of Jesus, cause there’s an entire chapter in the bible where he tells people to stop doing it.

        Rather train yourself for godliness; for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.

        Timothy 4:8

        Not a whole chapter, but still

          What? How do you get that?

          while bodily training is of some value

          Pretty straight forward yeh? It is of value.

          Do you remember the story of Sampson? Im sure that dude was built like a brick house.

            The actual one I mentioned earlier that is about not flexing your charity was him. Or him according to Matthew, anyway.
